Stop a Databricks app from a task list change
Make planned shutdowns happen while the operational context is still fresh.
Trigger
Task List Changed
Triggers when a task list changes (title or content updates). This trigger monitors a specific Google Tasks list and fires when changes are detected.
Action
Stop Databricks App
Tool to stop the active deployment of a Databricks app. Use when you need to stop a running app, which transitions it to the STOPPED state. The stop operation is asynchronous and the app will transition to the STOPPED state after the operation completes.
Why this helps
Unused apps keep running because shutdown requests wait for manual follow-up.
- Supports planned cost control
- Keeps shutdown rationale documented
- Reports the asynchronous stop request
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Tasks and Databricks once.
- 2Create an automation named Stop app from shutdown list.
- 3Tell Notis to stop the exact app named in the list only when the request is approved.
- 4Pick Task List Changed as the trigger.
- 5Choose where reports go and test with one shutdown list update.
Questions about this workflow
Can this stop a production app?
Use it only when the task list contains the required approval and scope.
